Extreme Value Theorem

If f is continuous on [a,b] then f has an absolute maximum and an absolute minimum on [a,b]. The global extrema occur at critical points in the interval or at endpoints of the interval.

Rolle's Theorem
Front
Let f be continuous on [a,b] and differentiable on (a,b) and if f(a)=f(b) then there is at least one number c on (a,b) such that f'(c)=0 (If the slope of the secant is 0, the derivative must = 0 somewhere in the interval).

Combo Test for local extrema

If f'(c) = 0 and f"(c)<0, there is a local max on f at x=c.
If f'(c) = 0 and f"(c)>0, there is a local min on f at x=c.

Given f(x):
Is f continuous @ C
Is f' continuous @ C
Front
Yes lim+=lim-=f(c)
No, f'(c) doesn't exist because of cusp
Back
Given f'(x):
Is f continuous @ c?
Is there an inflection point on f @ C?
Front
This is a graph of f'(x). Since f'(C) exists, differentiability implies continuouity, so Yes.
Yes f' decreases on X<C so f''<0
f' increases on X>C so f''>0
A point of inflection happens on a sign change at f''
